Cliff Notes 08/09 Programs

This is all the information we have so far. I've grouped in by discipline, and in alphabetical order by last name within discipline. For pairs and dance, it is the lady's name that I have used to order the listing.

So feel free to post what I've missed, but I think this thread should be kept short and to the point. Discussion is best kept in the other thread.

Alexander Johnson (USA)
SP - "Fantasy for Violin and Orchestra" from the Ladies in Lavender soundtrack performed by Joshua Bell
LP - "Introduction and Rondo Capriccioso, Op 28" by Camille Saint-Saens and "Meditation" from Thais by Massenet

Brian Joubert (FRA)
SP - Rise by Safri Duo (from his exhibition last season)
LP - "The Last of the Mohicans" Soundtrack

Kharis Ralph and Asher Hill (CAN)
OD - They Can't Take That Away From Me (originally by Gershwin, I'm not sure what version they're using) (foxtrot)
FD - St. James' Infirmary Blues from And All That Blues

anya_angie, I am not sure what you are talking about. Which skater's programs are you referring to? I will be happy to correct any that are not right. If you're referring to Diane Szmiett's program "Once Upon a December", the information that 'T. Newman' either composed or performed it is taken from her ISU biography. Is that the one?

A number of different skaters are performing to pieces by Chopin. The movie is "The Piano" not "The Pianist", as far as I know. It does have an alternative title of "The Piano Lesson"

Okay, I've seen The Piano Lesson but not The Piano as of yet, I adored The Pianist and since that was the piece that got the most attention from that film, that's why I thought that there might have been a typo or mistake. I will post that info on filmtracks' message board (I am getting a bunch of them interested in skating by telling them what skaters are using this year). Yeah, I was referring to Diana S of Canada. If that info was gotten from ISU, they are sorely mistaken, as Thomas is certainly not the only Newman composer, but he is the more famous of the two (multiple-time Oscar nominee, whereas David only had one which was for Anastasia).
